LiveStream REBROADCAST! Warbirds In Review F6D Mustang September 5 AT 6PM CDT/7pm EDT

After completing 26 missions, WWII fighter ace Lt. Col. Clyde East transferred to the US Army Air Corps and became a 1st Lieutenant with the 15th Tactical Reconnaissance Squadron, 9th Air Force. This squadron was one of the only American squadrons to fly British Spitfires. East spent about 200 hours flying the Spitfire before the squadron received the P-51B Mustang and later the F-6D Mustang (photo reconnaissance version). On June 6, 1944, East took part in the D-Day invasion of Normandy in the Mustang. During this mission, East and his wingman came across several FW-190s landing and promptly shot them down using their .50 caliber machine guns, achieving the first aerial victories of the invasion. The event features P-51 owner Butch Schroeder and will be moderated by Danny Bowlin.
